It will be shake, shake, shake at Silver Springs for the Fourth of July.

KC and the Sunshine Band, one of the most defining acts of the disco era, will headline the nature park’s annual Independence Day concert, according to Brooks Jordan, the park’s director of marketing and sales. Opening acts have not been announced yet.

Originally from Miami, KC and the Sunshine band topped charts in the 1970s with songs such as “(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty,” “That’s the Way (I Like it),” “I’m Your Boogie Man,” “Boogie Shoes” and “Get Down Tonight.” The band is still led by its namesake, Harry Casey, who has a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.

The Grammy Award-winning has sold more than 100 million records. The band charted four No. 1 singles in 1975, three of which crossed over to top Billboard’s R&B chart, too.
